Oxygen sources for muscles primarily include the blood and myoglobin. Blood delivers oxygen from the lungs via hemoglobin, while myoglobin, a protein found in muscle cells, stores oxygen for immediate use during intense physical activity. Additionally, during prolonged exercise, muscles can also utilize oxygen from surrounding tissues and the aerobic metabolism of glucose and fats for energy production.
What else can I help you with?
Does the vessels carry oxygen to the muscles?
Arteries carry oxygen to the muscles of the body.
Does anaerobic exercise require body use in extra oxygen?
No, anaerobic exercise does not require the body to use extra oxygen. Anaerobic exercise relies on stored energy sources in the muscles, such as glycogen, for fuel without the need for oxygen.
How does the cardiovascular system affect the skeletonmusclar system?
The cardiovascular system sends oxygen to the muscles.
What two things do muscles need?
nutrition and oxygen
What are the sources of oxygen?
The major sources of oxygen...are plants because without them we wouldn't have enough oxygen to start with..
What is the relationship between your muscles andanaerobic respiration?
you use oxygen in your muscles to do work and anaerobic respiration uses oxygen.
How does human cells get oxygen?
You breathe in and the oxygen goes into your lungs. Your blood picks up the oxygen and carries it to your muscles, and then goes into the cells in said muscles.
Muscles contain an oxygen storage pigment called what?
Muscles contain an oxygen storage pigment called myoglobin. Myoglobin helps muscles store and transport oxygen for energy production during exercise.
What is the organ system that transports oxygen to the muscles?
The cardiovascular system, specifically the red blood cells, is what transports oxygen to the muscles.
Do muscles need oxygen to work?
Yes, cardiac muscles cells have a very high oxygen demand, since they are constantly in motion. This is why any shortage of oxygen causes angina, or if the oxygen deprivation is long enough, it causes death of the muscle cells - what is commonly called a heart attack.
Why cant you run for as long if you have less oxygen in your blood?
because your blood carries oxygen to you muscles. without much oxygen blood won't be able to take lots to your muscles, and with little oxygen your muscles won't work as well and therefore you won't run as quickly :)
What does the blood supply the muscles with?
oxygen
